A cookie policy tells visitors what small files your site stores in their browser and why. Tick the kinds of cookies you use and the tools you have installed, enter your company details, and the tool writes a plain-language policy with a table of services. It is a starting draft: it does not claim to meet any particular law, and the choices that depend on your region are left for you to fill in.
A good cookie policy answers four questions in plain words: what cookies are, which ones you use, why you use them and how a visitor can say no. Anything beyond that tends to confuse readers more than it helps them.
Be specific about the tools. 'We use analytics' tells a visitor little, while naming the tool and saying what it counts gives them something they can understand and check. A table with one row for each service is the easiest format to read.
The most common problem is a policy that no longer matches the site. A new chat widget, a social media pixel or an embedded map can each add cookies. Review the policy whenever you add or remove a tool, and update the date at the top.
If you use a consent tool, make sure its categories match the categories in your policy. A visitor who turns off analytics should see that your policy describes what that choice does.
Whether you must ask before setting non-essential cookies, what the page must say and what you must keep as a record all depend on where you operate and who visits your site. This generator does not decide those points for you.
Write down the places you serve, check the guidance published by the authorities in those places and talk to a qualified adviser. Then return to the form, name the laws that apply and adjust the text to match.
No. It is a plain starting draft and is not legal advice. It does not state or promise compliance with any law. Cookie rules differ by place and change over time, so have a lawyer or a qualified adviser review the final text for your situation.
Which rules apply depends on where you operate and where your visitors are. The tool gives you fields to name them yourself, and shows a marked blank where they belong until you do.
Names and lifetimes are set by each provider and can change. The table lists each service and its purpose and points to the provider's own notice for details. You can add your own cookies with their name, purpose and lifetime.
Requirements vary by region and by what you do. Even where a page is not required, many sites publish a short one for transparency. If you use no cookies, the tool writes a short statement saying so.
Essential cookies keep the site working, such as a cart or a login. Preference cookies remember choices like language. Analytics cookies count visits and show how the site is used. Advertising cookies are used to show or measure ads.
